[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Why isn't this against the law?[/b] This group is encouraging children to bring their (overwhelmingly Christian) bibles to school on Thursday. I thought there was supposed to separation of church and state in this country. Now were going to have kids trot out their bibles to show (and imply) that other kids (say Jewish, or other religions) are wrong?

If I had school-age kids, I'd keep them home that day. (I'm Jewish.)

I'd love to know what law the OP thinks is being broken here.

Also, separation of church and state prohibits the government, not individuals.

Keep your kid home and educate yourself on the Constitution.[/quote]
Yes, but the private group is using a government institution (public school) through which to conduct it's religious outreach. Hence the crossover between church and state. [/quote]

Again, church and state prohibits the government, not private groups.  The school has nothing to do with this event.

The students are certainly free to bring their Bibles or other religious texts to school.[/quote]
